About this title

Synopsis

Written by a well known authority in the field, it explains how to use sophisticated products that merge database management with data communications in order to guarantee security, integrity and concurrency regardless of the computer platform. Provides in-depth coverage of the issues and concepts of Enterprise Database Connectivity (EDC) to deploy these enterprise applications successfully to the desktop. Enables readers to design and implement systems by offering objective information about significant products from IBM, Sybase, Microsoft, etc., for front end and imbedded tools. Discusses various approaches to connectivity (what works with what) and offers a simple action plan to allow large companies to move forward in this rapidly growing area.

Reviews

What's an enterprise? According to Hackathorn, a group motivated by a common objective working with common resources. Ergo, an enterprise database is a tool used by a group to make decisions, or in the words of Hackathorn, "a reflection of reality." With the fall of centralized information systems in most large organizations, enterprise computing and their databases--computing of, by, and for the people--has grown, thanks to desktop computing and local area networks. Hackathorn explains this brave enterprising world in terms of control, architecture, and management. Eight examples, labeled INDEPTH, explain with software cases principles of access, copy, and warehouse management. Questions at the end of each chapter help you ruminate on Hackathorn's perspectives of enterprise databases. If you're convinced that enterprise computing is just another passing fad, this book will convince you otherwise. Nevertheless, it not designed for database novice, and assumes some understanding of networking and database functions.
